Only one cast regular has died in the entire first half of season five of “The Walking Dead” and the mid-season finale is Sunday. (Toodles, Bobster!)

One? Seriously? This, despite Daryl, Rick and Glenn being tied up at a hog trough by cannibals. This, despite Beth being kidnapped by rape freaks in Atlanta. This, despite Daryl being choked out by a psycho cop while walkers were trying to gnaw his knuckles.
